    In Jeffrey Klassen’s essay‚ “He Looked Into the Grim Reaper’s Eyes and Nervously Laughed‚” he describes Henri Bergson’s theory on comedy and applies it to the movie Office Space.

For instance‚ she describes her intense passion for a lover in lines such as “my tongue is broken”‚ “ impalpable fire runs tingling”‚ and “sweat runs down in rivers”. I find Sapphos’ poems to be far more complex than most modern love songs today. Nowadays‚ the majority of modern love songs are either commercialized
